Count The Homeless

A point-in-time home­less count is held locally as well as across Ohio each year. Statewide, there were 12,325 home­less found dur­ing the count, accord­ing to the 2013 Ohio Home­less Report from the Coali­tion on Home­less­ness and hous­ing in Ohio.

This year’s point-in-time count here in our region will take place next Tues­day, Jan. 28. Vol­un­teers are being sought to help with this year’s count. To vol­un­teer, call the Rich­land Place PATH Cen­ter at 419–782-6962 or email khurtt@nocac.org. Volunteers will be making/taking phone calls, taking surveys and even going out to look for homeless individuals.
